Wow! I haven't made a post since Christmas. That's pretty sad! It's something I really have been wanting to do but can't seem to find the time. We were both sick over New Year's, and then I have been busy at Glo trying to recuperate from the Holidays. So...here I am.

I don't really make New Year's Resolutions, but I would like to try to be better at doing these things:

Taking More Pictures

Cooking More Often

Working Out More Consistently

Getting More Organized

Do you see the MORE?? I try to do MORE of these things but it doesn't tie me down to any deadlines, schedules, or "have-to's".

My best friend came to visit me at the beginning of the year with her new baby girl, Grace Elizabeth (yes, my name's sake). We had such a great time together, but it's always too fast of a visit.

Me and Grace

Tosh liked Grace way too much, but Grace seemed to like her the same!

Hopefully I will be updating about new makeup tips and fun products for the New Year! It looks like we are getting some more snow....SHOOT! We have a HUGE makeup event at Glo this weekend...so be praying for it to come earlier or later.

This Christmas was a little different this year as I'm sure it will be every year now that everyone is married. Joseph and I spent Christmas with his family at Thanksgiving, so his parents came over for Christmas Eve to spend with my family as well as my sister-in-law's parents. It was so fun to have them there! It makes it nice that all of our in-laws are pretty much best friends and we can spend the holidays all together. We have always done our "Christmas" on Christmas Eve (that's why we never believed in Santa Clause). :) My mom hosted and had all the tables decorated so beautifully. My dad cut some trees down in our back yard, so my mom was able to make use of them for table decorations. The silver ornaments that are hanging represent each child and then one for each of their spouse. We also have one for each granchild as they come.

Sisters (Leah, Morgan, and Me) Morgan is pregnant with their third. Yippee!! But..how is it, that I look more pregnant than her? Ha! I hope its just the way I'm sitting. :)

I have been married to my high school sweet heart for 5 years. We have a sweet little boy named Asa, who was born on October 28, 2010. I own a cosmetic boutique called Glo, and love makeup and sharing my passion with others. I am now a full time stay at home mom, but still do wedding makeup on the weekends. Hopefully, through this, I can make some new "blog friends" as well as share new makeup ideas, my life as a mom, and any other things that come to mind. :)
